Kubrow Egg

This egg is used to transplant the genetic code of a Kubrow onto a Kubrow clone.

—In-Game Description

This egg can be incubated to hatch into either a natural Kubrow of a random species, or according to the Genetic Imprint used in breeding. Kubrow Eggs are rare and can only be obtained by destroying Kubrow Dens in the Grineer Foresttileset, which is only located on Earth. Alternatively, it can be bought for ‍ 10 in the Market or obtained as a reward from Alert Missions.

Upon breaking a Kubrow Den, there is a small chance that a Kubrow Egg will drop. Usually, upon breaking a den, you will automatically pick up the egg. There are multiple dens, usually on the lower ground levels. Dens appearance resembles the base of a tree, with a root system and a hole from which Kubrows emerge. If you fire into or strike the den additional Kubrows emerge. Kubrow Eggs use the same visual effects that rare mods and 5,000-standing Syndicate Medallions use, namely a column of light.

You cannot hold more than one egg at a time. If you already have an egg, a message stating "You already have a Kubrow Egg. Only one Kubrow Egg can be carried at a time." will be displayed at the bottom of the screen when you try to pick up another one. However, players can pick up an egg if they are incubating another egg. Eggs received as awards from Alerts will not be lost even if the player has an unhatched egg. It is the only way to have more than one egg at a time.
